Apprentice Destruction

Spells

Description

When most people start off as mages and level up their destruction levels they despereately want the "next-level" magic spell. However, where can one obtain these Adept, Expert and Master level spells? As for learning Adpet spells, they can be found in books that are scattered across Skyrim in dungeons and enemy mages. The easiest way, however is found in the College of Winterhold in the North Eastern part of Skyrim.

After starting the College of Winterhold questline First Lessons you need to find Farendal, the Destruction teacher at the College. She can be found in The Hall of Countenance. The Hall of Countenance can be found in the central courtyard in front of the main enterance to the College. Directly to the right of the front gate. Talk to her and ask here what she sells. Then navigate to her books section and select the spells you want. She carries a wide variety of spells and are added as your destruction level increases. For example, she will not have expert level spells when your Destruction Level is only 30.

Buy the new spells and use them. If you use Destruction often new spells will become availible to you and you can purchase them from Farendal.

Another way to gain Destruction spells (or any spells for that matter) is to do the College of Winterhold questline. The long and tough questline has mages throughout that you must defeat, and many books can be looted and found on the way. However, it is suggested that you do buy some Apprentice Level spells and a few Conjuration Spells in order to defeat the more difficult foes such as bosses.
